An avid culinary enthusiast with a visually curious mind. This pretty much sums up who I am in my pursuit of my creative journey.

Working out of my test kitchen and studio in Los Angeles, California, cooking, styling and photographing the finished food are a regular self-prescribed ritual of my life these days.

I feel a special connection to my art when photographing these images. I would like my photos to not only be beautiful to look at, but also to evoke something deeply emotive. I want to inspire the audience to see a story, a memory, a moment captured in their own imagination.

With a deep appreciation for the beauty of natural light, I strive to incorporate this essential element along with content, composition, texture and color to bring out the essence of the subject with organic simplicity.

I want the photogenic energy to appeal to all senses, not only taste, and convey a specific mood at the same time. Artful food is the language I create and speak.

This salted caramel fudge brownies was created in celebration of Halloween. The fun part in making it was to make the stencil for the witch on the broom and the bats. The burned edges of the parchment paper and the lacy background help to pull the elements together to convey that sense of bewitching yumminess.
